G(9) A/B G(9) A/B
Verse 1
G(9) A/B
So the sun shines on this fun'ral
G(9) A/B
Just the same as on a birth
G(9) A F#m7
The way it shines on everything
Bm7 Em7 A D/A A
That happens here on Earth
G(9) A/B
It rolls across the Western sky
G(9) A/B
And back into the sea
Bm7 Em7 A
And spends the day's last rays
F#m7 G(9) A7sus
Upon this fucked-up family
D F#m7 G(9) Em7 A D/A A
So long old pal
Verse 2
G(9) A/B
The last time I saw Alice
G(9) A/B
She was leaving Santa Fe
G(9) A/B F#m7
With a bunch of round-eyed Buddhists
Bm7 Em7 A D/A A
In a killer Chevrolet
G(9) A/B
Said they turned her out of Texas
G(9) A/B
Yeah she burned them down back home
Bm7 Em7 A F#m7
Now she's wild with expectation
G A7sus D
On the edge of the unknown
Chorus
Bm7 Em7 F#m7 Bm7 A/B Bm7
Singing oh, it's enough to be on your way
Em7 F#m7 G
It's enough to cover ground
Em7 Em7/A Dmaj9
It's enough to be moving on
Bm7 Em7 F#m7 Bm7 A/B Bm7
Home, build it behind your eyes
Em7 F#m7 G
Carry it in your heart
Em7 F#m7 Bm Em7 A7
Safe among your own
G(9) A/B
They brought her back on a Friday night
G(9) A/B
Same day I was born
G(9) A F#m7
We sent her up the smokestack
Bm7 Em7 A D/A A
Yes and back into the storm
G(9) A/B
She blew up over the San Juan Mountains
G(9) A/B
She spent herself at last
Bm7 Em7 A F#m7
The threat of heavy weather
G A7sus D
That was what she knew the best
Chorus
Bm7 Em7 F#m7 Bm7 A/B Bm7
Oh, it's enough to be on your way
Em7 F#m7 G
It's enough to cover ground
Em7 Em7/A Dmaj9
It's enough to be moving on
Bm7 Em7 F#m7 Bm7 A/B Bm7
Home, better build it behind your eyes
Em7 F#m7 G
Carry it in your heart
Em7 F#m7 Bm
Safe among your own

Verse 3
G(9) A/B
It woke me up on a Sunday
G(9) A/B
An hour before the sun
G(9) A/B F#m7
It had me watching them headlights
Bm7 Em7 A D/A A
Out on Highway 591
G(9) A/B
Till I stepped into my trousers
G(9) A/B
Till I pulled my big boots on
Bm7 Em7 A F#m7
I walked out on the Mesa
G A7sus D
And I stumbled on this song
Chorus
C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 C#m7 B/C C#m7
Oh, it's enough to be on your way
F#m7 G#m7 A(9)
It's enough to cover ground
F#m7 A/B Emaj9
It's enough to be moving on
C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Home, boy, build it behind your eyes
F#m7 G#m7 A(9)
Carry it in your heart
F#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Safe among your own
G#m7 A(9) F#m7 B
So long, old gal
